Bastuklubben

2014 · 1 season

A dry, talky sitcom that ambles along on one man's boastful monologues, more mildly amusing than laugh-out-loud.

Overview: This swedish short comedy miniseries follows Jarmo, a proud finnish man sitting inside a sauna telling the "weak" swedish people about his life and how "to be a strong man".
How it feels: Satirical, cynical, absurd and light. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Identity, class, gender, isolation
Content: Strong language. Mild sexual content. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
